Progression
by

I.
Me alone
II.
Me - You; together
III.
Me - You - Another;
too much for a couple
too few for a group
Infinity.
I sit pondering the
Progression of my
Life through
Loneliness intertwined with constant
Social activity.
I exist solely as
One, surrounding myself with
Those who allow me the
Illusion of comfort which is wholly
Unattainable in my present state of
Solitude.
Those whom I admit as
Friends constantly feed into this
Solitude by refusing to
See the person who is
Me, choosing instead to see the
Person whom they assume I will be until
Ultimately they realize that the image is
Hollow and choose to leave, confirming that
Alone am
I.
